Why is the car reversing camera not displaying?
2 Answers
The reasons why the car reversing camera is not displaying: there may be an issue with the connection between the camera and the central control screen, or the camera and the central control screen itself may be faulty. To specifically determine where the problem lies, you can check the following situations: 1. First, check if the display screen is damaged. If the display on the screen is normal, then the issue is not with the display screen; 2. If it cannot display, check the wiring to see if there are any obvious damages or poor connections; 3. Inspect the camera for any obvious cracks or damage. If there are cracks, it is likely that water has entered through the cracks, causing the camera to malfunction; 4. Check the wiring and inspect each connector one by one. If a connector has poor contact, there will be a gap. If you find a poorly connected wire connector, you can directly remove the connector and connect the two ends of the wire together, or you can purchase a separate wiring set to replace it.
I've been driving for over a decade and have encountered situations where the reversing camera doesn't display. It could be due to the camera lens being covered in mud or a loose connection, especially in damp areas after rain. First, clean the rearview camera by gently wiping it with a cloth. If that doesn't work, it might be a blown fuse—check the fuse box for the one related to reversing and pull it out to see if the filament is broken. Loose wiring connections are also common, so follow the cable to check if the interface is secure. If it's an internal circuit issue, like unstable voltage causing the screen to not receive signals, a professional mechanic will need to use tools to diagnose it. Driving without a reversing camera is quite dangerous, so don't take it lightly. Get it checked at a repair shop as soon as possible—safety first. You can handle minor issues yourself, but leave the technical work to the experts.
